The Eli ZERO also comes with useful features including keyless entry and start, power-assisted steering, and an electronic parking brake. As for the interior, the Eli ZERO contains vegan leather seats, a digital driver display, and an optional SONY infotainment system with Bluetooth connectivity. In terms of safety features, the Eli ZERO possesses hydraulic electric-powered-assisted disc brakes and MacPherson front struts with an anti-roll bar. 

Through the features that the Eli ZERO offers, the EV model is seemingly only useful for urban areas with conveniently located charging stations at most corners because of its low range. However, with the Eli ZERO having most features that exude a standard driving experience, it will be advantageous in tight urban areas with its small build. 

Transforming Urban Mobility

Marcus Li, the CEO and founder of Eli Electric Vehicles, expressed the Eli ZERO’s entry into the U.S. market stating, “Introducing the Eli ZERO to the U.S. market, we’re not only riding the wave of an emerging mobility revolution, but also redefining personal vehicles in an innovative way that benefits both traffic and the environment.”

Furthermore, Li further states that the company’s goal is also to positively transform the driving experience for its EV owners in urban areas for a “better utilization of urban space, reduced congestion, ease of parking and ultimately an improved quality of life in cities.”
